GoGuardian Beacon vs. Text-Em-All

We have found them to be very good for immediate communication of a brief message to a large number of people at once. Thus, it works perfectly for a neighborhood association. It may not be suitable for longer messages or situations with excessive notifications.

• The ability to customize the rate of outgoing calls in order to avoid getting overwhelmed.
• The ease of use makes their service beneficial to me rather than another chore on my list.
• Giving details on how much my message will cost and giving me the ability to modify it in real-time to control what I am spending.

• My initial concern was regarding the "opt out" feature. I work with the senior population, and many of whom are not that tech-savvy. I have a couple of residents who had unintentionally opted out of messages thinking it was an individual message they were skipping. I would suggest that there be a clarifying question when a user chooses to opt out; it should default to opting out of a single message and survey the user to see if they would like to opt out of receiving additional messages. My residents were wondering why they were missing information and why I hadn't informed them of important dates and events.

Text-Em-All is a great way to get messages to our associates versus posting on a memo board and hoping they see it. Very efficient. I would recommend this great tool to companies big or small as a form of business related communications. The only thing I would change is the ability to use more characters in the messages. And it would be a plus if you can translate to different languages in the app.

It's fantastic. In general, it's a 10. But I give it a 7 because of the way I know it can improve. I save my workers' names in lists...and I have only the first and last name fields to classify them. I grade my workers based on their experiences and based on their jobs; so I use the last name field to group them. This could be easier by you adding another field.

The availability of the text em all is amazing specially when we needed the most to spread out the word on an event that was happening.

I love the performance it provided us. Also, want to clarify that the time it takes to send out a mass text is amazing

There have been few times over the last 18 years that I have had to make changes to our billing or deal with particular tech questions and I have never had any issues with their response time or ability to be helpful once the issues were communicated

This was the best way we were able to reach out to everyone we wanted to, being that there were some not tech-sabi elderly people. This was a better way for them to be able to get the information they needed.

Our last provider was costly for what we needed. We need the ability to text, and that's it. The sense was challenging to navigate; I had to sign a one-year contract and pay thousands upfront. Text-em-all has been the best thing.

We have never had a problem being able to use Text em all when we needed it

• 100% of the company received reliable information at the same time for the first time without having to hold a “town hall” which used to cause all work to stop for at least 15-20 mins.
• Because work no longer has to stop for verbal communication announcements, 7.5 hours total of work is saved for every message sent.
